thatguySHM, Please let me/us know how you like that combination of the MR2000 and 165gr. bullets. I'm looking to try a little something different in my Tikka T3 (current load 150gr. TTSX w/Varget) and you're thinking along my lines. Keep us posted! Thank you. - OFFSHORE

I know this thread is several months old, but I just had to chime in on what a BAD-ARSS these bullets are! I put the smack-down on all sorts of critters with my little Ruger Predator rifle in .223. I have a friend that I load for who is a AR-15 fanatic that uses these bullets for deer...

I hear ya brother. BS events have kicked me to the ground the last two season. . .hurricanes!!! September `16 Hermine put a couple feet of the Gulf of Mexico in my house. . .mullet and blue crabs swimming in the garage, then September `17 almost to the date, Irma comes through and it is...

I've been a .44 caliber lover of various cartridges over the years and 95% of the bullets I use have been jacketed bullets. Well, a bullet I've been using for years and really liked the accuracy and on game performance, the manufacture has decided to change the design and remove the dual...

I was following your 10mm journey and waiting for hunting season to arrive to see some critter pics and "on game performance" stories, then the season arrives and you go ghost. . .well ???

Thanks guys. I've looked into this on my dies. . .I'm going to experiment a little with this.

+1 on your case like Ridgerunner said, it will depend on the inside volume area. I run fire formed Norma 280 brass with 62.5 grains below a 162 grain A-Max seated to 2.795" at the ogive. This is a pretty warm load, but I'm still good with case volume and pressure signs. It wouldn't hurt for...

Scott, Tell me more about the VLD seater. . .how does this effect accuracy. I've read in times past about people who switched to them (mostly Berger shooters), but not much info was of "why or how" it made their loads perform better, so I never put much thought into it. If this could be a...

I've come to really like the Reloder26 powder. In my 280AI with 26" tube my pet hunting load is; 62.5 gr. RL26 Norma brass WLRM primer 162 gr. HOR A-Max 3100 FPS .5 MOA @ 100 yds. I have started playing with it in a 6.5x55 Swede as well. . .it has turned my little Swede into a completely...

Well guys, I give up on these LRAB bullets. I just can't make them shoot. I tried seating them as deep as .155". . . and the damn things looked like 120gr. flat base bullets sticking out of my brass! I even tried three different powders - Reloder22, H1000 and H4831sc, nothing to good to call...

Thanks for the quick response from you guys. I have to apologize for my mix up is decimal placement in my above post. . .it should read .010/1000 to .140/1000 off the lands. Any further into the case neck may put the ogive in the neck - LOL. The .284 150gr. touches the lands at 2.815" to the...
